It looks like there is no 64-bit version of Eclipse for Windows - only for Linux. &nbsp;Is this correct? &nbsp;If so, any idea if a 64-bit version for Windows is planned in the near future?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

I am looking at upgrading to Windows XP Professional x64 (64-bit). &nbsp;Eclipse (for Java development) is what I spend most of my time using, so I want to make sure I won't have any issues with Eclipse running on XP x64 before I move to it.<br />
<br />
So, my question is 2 parts:<br />
<br />
1) Will I run into any compatibility issues runnin Eclipse on XP x64?<br />
<br />
2) Will I see a performance improvement running Eclipse on XP x64 versus XP x86?

I am looking at upgrading to Windows XP Professional x64 (64-bit).  Eclipse (for Java development) is what I spend most of my time using, so I want to make sure I won't have any issues with Eclipse running on XP x64 before I move to it.

So, my question is 2 parts:

2) Will I see a performance improvement running Eclipse on XP x64 versus XP x86?

Is Eclipse compatible with XP x64?

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
